According to Manchester Evening News who was live from the conference, Pep said: “I said it six months ago. Just because I'm extending the contract doesn't mean I'm saying Pep is nice. I said six months or a year ago: what will happen if we are relegated? I'll be there. » A statement that reflects an unwavering commitment to the club. The Cityzens coach having signed for 2 additional seasons, this means that he will be present with the Skyblues when the final verdict on the accusations is announced. The club director will then have to deal with the fallout from this affair himself.
